[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bsdesign0000:
thanks guys, i am going to root the phone tonight after work. i browsed thru the rooting instructions for the jellybean update software (which i got when i activated my phone). I just didnt want to run into unstable data connections like i had with my thunderbolt.

Can you guys recommend any good 4.1 Roms as well as 4.2 roms? Also what is the difference between android 4.1 & 4.2?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
It depends on the ROM as all 4.2 ROMs as of now are AOSP ROMs while the 4.1 ROMs are either TW based or AOSP based.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bsdesign0000:
TW is ok... better then Sense IMO, however I like the stock ASOP feel. I will give a 4.2 rom a try. can you recommend a popular, 100% working 4.2 ROM? I looked in the dev section and there are so many Roms to choose from........ 24 hours of having my S3 and i LOVE it! so buttery smooth!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
Blackbean 7 Is the most stable of the bunch as of now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] neh4pres:
Ok. If you are going to root and Rom there are some things you need to know.

Your going to want to unlock your boot loader. And make an imei backup incase you lose it during a flash.

Search those up and get them done and your good to go

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bsdesign0000:
thanks guys, i rooted the phone with no problems last night. got root and unlocked bootloader. I wanted to try out CM10 so I fla**** it this morning. So far so good. really like 4.2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Gibscreen:
Do you mean Cm 10.1? Because if you flashed cm10 you're still on 4.1. Cm10 has a stable release while cm10.1 is still on nightlies. I've been running 10.1 nightlies for about a month and have only noticed very minor issues. So minor I can't even remember what they are.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WarlockLord:
On Saturday night I foolishly loaded AT&T's MIUI on my phone, then flashed with Scott's patch for Verizon.

-NO GOOD-

Since I did this, my phone was stuck in roaming. So I odin'ed back to stock, and did a ##RTN# from the hidden menu, which gave me back "no roaming" and restored voice and 3g connectivity. Unfortunately, I can't get my 4g back.

So Verizon is sending me a "certified like new replacement" which I'm not OK with. How do I pull the information I need off the CLNR, like the screwed up EFS system, and write it to the new phone using dd? Someone said there are 3 EFS partitions to be backed up, which don't contain the IMEI or anything sensitive (my imei is fine). What 3 parititons do I need to backup and what is the correct dd options like BS, etc. to accomplish this?

If I'm successful, I'll put the CLNR back in the box and send it back to them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Travisdroidx2:
Not sure if you can do that since it goes off you device serial number. Also the new one will most likely have the new ota and you will not be able to unlock until adam releases the new unlock method. I thought I seen someone say that the root 66 odin fixed their 4g issues after making a similar mistake.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WarlockLord:
Can you point me in the right direction?

Sorry I can not fi d tbe original post where he had the same problem. Been reading a lot and the threads are pretty cluddered lately specially after the ota.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] WarlockLord:
Back on stock root 66... still no 4g... i download the phone info app and can't select anything related to LTE and make it stick. As soon as I step back out the menu, it reverts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Travisdroidx2:
Actually I think there is a thread where they describe how to restore it with the secret menu. I hope I can find that thread for you or someone else can help out. I will keep looking.

Re: Can't get 4g back

The problem ended up being with the prl... go figure... I grabbed a spare SIM and activated it, which triggered a prl download. I guessed it may have had something to do with that after I was able to force LTE from the hidden menu.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott62185:
Does anyone know how to customize the text message pop-up so the only option that it lists is to "reply" (instead of also having "read" and "call")? I had the ability to do that on one of the roms I was on, but I can't remember which one. I'm on Liquid now and have been on PA and Slim lately and none of them have that option in the SMS settings, as far as I can tell.

Thanks in advance...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbeebe24:
The ROM was probably AOKP. I'm sure you can pull the MMS apk from it and use it in another ROM of your choice.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott62185:
Cool, thanks man
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shotta35:
If not AOKP then definitely CyanogenMod as it was developed for that. It's called QuickReply so you can check there if not AOKP (which is a clone of CM right?)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott62185:
Oh, okay cool. Can you tell me how to take the apk out of one rom and put it in another?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shotta35:
Either you extract it from the ZIP file and place it in the new one then flash or

adb pull /system/app/MMS.apk (from CM10.1 installed on your phone)

then

adb push /system/app/MMS.apk (to the phone you want it on)

Or a combination of both the above (ripping from the ZIP then pushing it with ADB). Not entirely sure it can work though as some stuff might be linked to the Framework.apk however.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbeebe24:
Download either ROM and use root explorer to copy the apk from the ROM zip to your phone. Reboot and voila.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Android_Noob_2k12:
I have looked everywhere for the answer to this so it either doesn't exist or I completely missed it, but how do you program Samsung Tectiles or other NFC tiles with Tasker? I've heard of other members using Tasker to be able to set some pretty advanced profile options onto their NFC tiles using Tasker, but for the life of me I just can't figure out how they do it.

Thanks in advance guys.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] twanskys204:
In playstore tasker will have link to there web site shows u all possibilities for tasker
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jmacdonald19:
Try an app called "NFC Task Launcher" for programming the tags. If I remember correctly, it ties in with Tasker.

I honesyly dont know how the tasker developer web site cant help u.....iff thats the case I dont think anyone can...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Android_Noob_2k12:
I need a Tasker profile that contains NFC programming capability. Their website doesn't have profiles for that on it. I need to know where to get the profile.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] twanskys204:
The web site has allot of info
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kirkla79:
I personally use NFC retag for setting up tags. Dont forget to set up Tasker to allow external access.

You dont create profiles, you trigger specific tasks within Tasker using NFC Launcher or NFC retag. If you are trying to trigger a profile just set up the tag to trigger the tasks of that profile.

Your best bet is to search xda and google for examples of how others have theirs set up. I dont think there is a single site with all the info you are seeking.

Here is one example that I use setup in NFC retag for my car:

Cycle 1

1. Turns off wifi

2. Bluetooth on

2. Tasker task - triggers popup announcing Cycle start (nfc retag has a popup function, but it is not as modifiable)

3. Start app - Torque (Tasker is already setup to turn on/off gps for this app)

4. Tasker task - plugin Bluetooth Auto Connect connects to bt obdii device

Cycle 2

1. Bluetooth off

2. Tasker task - popup announces cycle stop

EDIT: sorry about the typos in the topic line.

After a reboot this morning I was greeted with the power menu outlined in the screen shot. The home button isn't working, I have no recent apps (probably related to home button), brightness resets after reboot and Cwm is gone. Tried both Nova and Sony launchers,same result. In fact the whole phone seems to be in a semi reset to default state. Maybe the small apps I flashed a couple of days ago somehow got botched up?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello!

I'm using an i9000 with CM10 and Devil 1.9.5.

I'd like to say I'm completely BLOWN AWAY by how good this kernel works. I've tweaked it a little according to info I researched around and so far it performs flawlessly (three days into it).

The thing is, my phone has just gotten so good that I'm not sure if there's any significant improvement to be achieved over this. I've purchased a 16gb Class10 micro SD, and am looking into activating the swap function in Devil (currently using 50mb of zRam instead).

1) Is it worth (performance wise) doing? What kind of changes should I expect and to which kind of applications/usage? Is the battery consumption going to change?

2) Is it worth sacrificing the longevity of a micro SD card for the added performance? If so, how long should I expect to be able to use it before it fries from the constant R/W?

Thanks a lot, BIG UPS to DerTeufel1980 for the insane level of quality he's been able to achieve.

i am having a hard time streaming 720p .mkv rip video to my nexus from a seagate goflex satellite mobile hard drive. i was able to install samba on the drive. i use es file explore to view and mx player with dts codec to play the video. only problem is i cant get the hardware decoder to work and the video is choppy with the software decoder. i get the error "cannot play this view with h/w+ decoder" and when i use the normal hardware decoder i get a grey screen. I dont think this is a bandwidth issue because this thing says it can stream 3 hd movies at once, i could be wrong :P wouldnt be the first time. im thinking i dont have something configured correctly on my nexus but i have no idea what to look for. any help on this would be amazing
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freshlysqueezed:
H/w+ doesn't work on the nexus 10. You need to use the regular h/w decoder. Alternatively, try bs player.

Will MX player play the video when the hard drive is plugged into the nexus 10 with an otg cable? If it doesn't, then it is probably a problem with the mkv file. You may need to trans code it to mp4 with handbrake.

I can wirelessly play transcoded 1080p mp4 files easily with my hacked go flex satellite. (But not ripped mkv files from my bluray discs.)

FASTBOOT

Fastboot is a diagnostic protocol included with the SDK package used primarily to modify the flash filesystem via a USB connection from another computer. It requires that the device be started in a boot loader or Second Program Loader mode in which only the most basic hardware initialization is performed. After enabling the protocol on the device itself it will accept a specific set of commands sent to it via USB utilizing a command line...

INSTALLATION

1. Download HTC Sync from HERE

Remember we are installing HTC SYNC for Drivers only...If u Do not use this software then you can uninstall it...Bt keep drivers as it is...

2.Download ADB and Fastboot Drivers from HERE

Download zip file extract it anywhere in your computer (Extract it in C/android for more convenience). Just open extracted folder and run app.bat.

[No Need To Set Drivers Path It Will Detect That Automatically...]

3.Download ADB and Fastboot command's list from HERE

Here is a document file it contains commands of ADB and Fastboot.]

Useful guide, a couple of points if I may...

Firstly regarding your step 1, I never uninstalled Sync, even though all of the guides tell you to. I used to use it to sync my phone so it was not convenient to do this. If you simply right click on the icon in the tray (on windows, next to the clock in the bottom right corner) then close the program, all off this still worked for me.

Secondly about your step 2, it would be good to create a folder in the root of C: drive (on your PC) and save these 'tools' in, call it something like 'Android' so it is easy to remember and easy to navigate to in the cmd prompt when using adb/fastboot.

Kies doesn't show update available and selecting upgrade through Kies tools menu fails as well. Do I need to clear my cache (which I have never done). Don't want to wipe and start over. Need to learn how to do this for future updates. I thought my basic root method would allow updates with little effort. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance.

I don't have a clue why this update wont happen or Kies wont connect. Im using the OEM USB cable. Everything says official and nothing custom.
